  • @DownPW Possible, yes, but it may be a little on the “greedy” side.

    Try this - obviously, remove the red border I used for testing and add your own code

    img[src$="gif"] {
        border: 10px solid red !important;
    }
    

    This is also very useful as a reference

    –> it seem to work with this code: 🙂

    /* max-width for IMG Files */
    .topic .posts .content .img-responsive {
        max-width: 45%;
    }
    
    /* max-width for GIF Files */
    .topic .posts .content .img-responsive[src$="gif"] {
        max-width: 10% !important;
    }
    

    Thanks @phenomlab for the attribute that I don’t find 😉

  • Hello @phenomlab

    It’s possible to add video background (mp4 for example)on nodebb for one theme and not for the other?

    @DownPW yes, but you have to be careful with performance. This can impact the loading of the site depending on the size of the MP4 file and where it is being accessed from.

    File accessible on the server and 22.6 mo

    How can I 'm doing this for testing?

    @DownPW Something like this would work

    <video autoplay muted loop id="bg-video">
      <source src="file.mp4" type="video/mp4">
      Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
    </video>
    

    Then some CSS which you’ll need to play with (this is an example)

    #bg-video{
      position: fixed;
      right: 0;
      bottom: 0;
      min-width: 100%; 
      min-height: 100%;
    }
    
  • hello @phenomlab

    I have a very odd bug that I didn’t have before

    I have images and background color defined for each category

    when I open a new topic, the fa icon on the bottom left taskbar does not appear like when I reply to a topic

    Here a gif too see the problem :

    new topic.gif

    And here is the result I want:

    4557001f-9b28-4a10-84e4-46d0dcffe20d-image.png

    I have tried to play with the color or z-index variable in css but nothing works

    I tried disabling the custom CSS on ACP but it’s the same. clear the cache = same

    Have you an idea ?

    You can test on production forum

    @DownPW I can’t see the images or videos, but I’ll have a look on your production site.

    @DownPW Seems to come from this code

    66521fca-2e73-4d69-820e-2915f1ecd948-image.png

    It should look like this

    Do you have any custom JS that is altering this, or perhaps a plugin ?

    @DownPW This is going to be painful, but it’s possible that one of these plugins is the cause. Have you tried disabling each one to see if the issue subsides ?

  • The last plugins we installed is the dice plugin, Iframely, and twitter, to be tested…

    Because the others are quite well known and I never noticed this bug with them, but I could be wrong.

    @DownPW Hmm. You could use a simple jQuery function to replace that icon with the right one. Just seems a bit “overkill” but might be necessary

    why not, if you can write this query I’m not saying no, just to test

    @DownPW might be a bit greedy, but try this

    $(document).ready(function() {
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $(this).find($(".fa")).removeClass('fa-nbb-none').addClass('fa-commenting-o');
        });
    });

    JS code seems not working but…

    I see on ACP, the image of category is uploaded to imgur :

    7ca2e670-4928-43d9-b1fd-530fae97c72a-image.png

    and I see this on dev console :

    b2321b44-7a73-4510-97b2-57fa73a096c9-image.png

    The url seems to not be encoded correctly, I don’t know why ???

    If I change manually the URL in the dev console, it’s OK:

    Yes, that certainly seems the case. I think you need to take this issue up with the plugin developer.

    the trick is to know which plugin is in question!!

    @DownPW sorry. I meant the imgur plugin author

    @DownPW I see why. The code relies on the existence of [component="topic/quickreply/container"] However, this by definition means that the below has to be enabled [image: 1679077966615-aeef638f-4188-489d-a9f2-f3a26dbca9d8-image.png] It will then work [image: 1679077992245-7fb38631-e0f3-46ef-b652-00929d927b13-image.png] For some unknown reason, this is hidden in Harmony, and only shows if you select it. In v2, it seems that the <section> is deleted altogether in Persona if “Quick Reply” is disabled, meaning it won’t fire as it can’t locate that specific component. The downside is that you might not want the quick reply function, but I think it’s a PITA to scroll up to the top of the post just to reply, so I have it on

    The real issue here is that most people consider forums to be “dead” in the sense that nobody uses them anymore, and social media groups have taken their place. Their once dominant stance in the 90’s and early 00’s will never be experienced again, but having said that, there are a number of forums that did in fact survive the social media onslaught, and still enjoy a large user base. Forums tend to be niche. One that immediately sticks out is Reddit - despite looking like it was designed in the 80s, it still has an enormous user base. Another is Stack Overflow, which needs no introduction. The key to any forum is the content it offers, and the more people whom contribute in terms of posting , the more popular and widely respected it becomes as a reliable source of information. Forums are still intensely popular with gamers, alongside those that offer tips on hacking etc.

    @cagatay you’ll need to define this in the body tag (or another element if you want greater or more granular targets) - for example body { font-family: "Poppins"; font-size: 16px; } Essentially, you use the font-size CSS directive.
